The Honda Pilot Trailsport (2025) is one of the last lines of low-tech, affordable, mid-size, 3 row SUVs that doesn't completely suck.
- Best all-around family vehicle. Behaves like a mini van but drives like a truck. Can go over a curve in an emergency. Tight; even the wife can park it with practice.
- Works on countryside roads or for camping. Tows a small load. Roof storage is functional. Not so expensive that you need to baby it. It should last: it's a Honda.
- No turbo engine. No hybrid bullshit. Interior is rough and basic. Kid ready. Teenager ready. Very grey man compatible. Keep the stickers off of it. Get an outdoor colorway so you don't need to wash it every week.
- Gets all the basics right; USBc charging, no backseat screens, great storage capacity, huge sun roof, steel collision bars, intercom, hidden storage for breakdown and medical kits, infotainment screen in front is low-fi and works with #GrapheneOS.
One of the last new lines of vehicles that are still #WorthTheSats.
